'Shearer the most honest person in UK' confirm BBC

Match of the Day fixture Alan Shearer has managed to fight off a strong challenge from fellow soccer pundits to be crowned the most honest person in the UK according to sources within the BBC
Former England and Newcastle striker Shearer, revered for his profound footballing knowledge and deep insight into the problems afflicting the game at the highest level, held off MOTD pundits Lee Dixon and Alan Hansen in a tightly run contest before being named The UK's Most Honest Person
Although getting off to a slow start during the opening game of the World Cup between S.Africa and Mexico, recording just 16 'to be perfectly honests' over the full 90 minutes, Shearer soon settled into his stride and it was not long before he left the other pundits trailing in his wake.
By the end of the tournament Shearer had put together an impressive 342 ‘honest’ related incidents and even managed to set a new world record of complete transparency (112) during the England v USA encounter.
After accepting the award Shearer was quick to praise his fellow pundits who helped make this one of the most honest and open World Cups in years.
'To be perfectly honest, I didn't think I was in with a shout this time' Shearer told Gary Lineker during half time in the Arsenal v Bolton game 'to be perfectly honest, I thought it might go to one of the other lads but I just played to the whistle'.
There was little opposition to the award although some England supporters thought it should have gone to disgraced pundit Robbie Earle who had the good sense to give away his tickets for the Denmark v Holland game ahead of kick-off.
'To be perfectly honest I knew the World Cup was going to be utterly crap so I gave my tickets away rather than have to sit through all that bollocks' said an upbeat Earle, looking fit and relaxed following a months holiday in the Caribbean.
Not only was it perfectly honest, it was about the only decent call any of the pundits had made throughout the whole tournament.
The winner of 'Most Argumentative Person in the UK' has yet to be decided, with Mark Lawrenson and John Motson still ahead of Alan Green for this year’s title.
Arguably.
